Climate change is a long-term shift in average weather conditions, including temperature, rainfall, snowfall, and wind. Climate change can also involve the timing and intensity of weather events.

A multimedia research project, Climate Change in Atlantic Canada, created a number of videos that help document the issue in the region. Review the videos to learn more about climate, why it is changing, how it is measured by scientists and understood by local people, and what Atlantic Canada might expect in the coming years.
